Standard (EADGBE)

Inside this life,

 Under it's spell,

I close my eyes,

 And live to tell.

The hands we're dealt,

 Will never disappear.

 Death she grows near.

Chorus

People change,

And instantly.

 I'm not the same girl,

I used to be.

I can't erase all the memories,

 But I can explain,

If you're listening.

 People change,

Not just me.

Locked up in silence,

 A living hell.

My heart still beats,

 So I bid farewell.

The loving hand that saved me,

 Held too tight.

 His darkness weighs on me at night.

Chorus

People change,

And instantly.

 I'm not the same girl,

I used to be.

I can't erase all the memories,

 But I can explain,

If you're listening.

 People change,

Not just me.

I never asked,

 Or wanted to.

You stepped across my threshold,

 How could you?
